Serena smiles at this, " That's my nii-chan for you. Duo, care to stay for dinner, it would be nice to have some company that isn't trying to bed me, and you can run them off for as long as you're here with your scythe, how does that sound to you? "
Duo smirks, " Sign me up, Ren. 'Taru doesn't mind, right? "
Hotaru smiles, " Nah, I love watching you work and terrify the mortals, maybe you should tell them that you are in fact Shinigami. "
" I just want to scare them, not kill them, 'Taru. " Duo quips.
Tsunade shakes her head at this, " So you can traverse dimension due to the nature of your job? "
Duo turns his attention to the Hokage, " Yes, I can. 'Sides, I'd get bored if I was confined to one place for entirely too long. It's never a good thing when I get bored, though maybe I should go on a pranking spree while I'm here, I have fresh targets. "
Neji does a face palm, " Were you friends with Naruto all those years ago? "
" Ren, 'Ruto, and I were an unstoppable pranking force. Ren is the Queen of Pranks, I'm the King, and 'Ruto is the Duke. No one could outdo us, and no one attempted to get even with us for fear of reprisals from the first born Lunar Prince, Heero Haven Refuge D'Luna. He easily has more power than Ren, and he knows how to wield it too. As long as you were one of us three or Hotaru you never had to fear his temper. Everyone tried to kill him off when he was young, and no one has figured out how to do it yet, Hotaru just turned him back into a baby at the fall of the Moon Kingdom. He's been blown up, shot, stabbed, buried under a rockslide, fallen from several stories in the air, and lived to tell the tale. I'd swear he was Death Incarnate instead of me. " Duo states.
Tsunade and Neji both blink at this, though no one else looked too shocked at the news, " I take it he has a reputation. " Tsunade states.
" Yeah, everyone learned really fast to not piss him off, very few lived to tell the tale when that happened. " Seiya states.
" No truer words have ever been spoken. He'd scare your worst scumbags here. His death glare is legendary, though I heard it doesn't faze the three who are right here, plus Naruto. " Taiki states.
Serena is finally finished with designing her twin katanas and she hands the design to Tsunade, " Can you have these made for me. I'd go do it myself, but I really don't want to deal with any idiots, and men are almost always idiots when they see something they like. No offense, Duo, Neji. "
Hotaru smirks, Serena had a point, " Neji, could you deliver this please, you won't get messed with. I think it's only right that the Tsukino Clan shows their guest around. " Tsunade says.
Neji disappears out the window and the others all head for the Tsukino Estate. As Neji roof hops along he thinks about everything he had learned today and resolved to be the Hyuuga that went calling for Hotaru, and he might just have Serena remove the curse mark. It sure would be nice to be able to not have that worry on his head. The Hyuuga clan heads were getting entirely too arrogant and it would be their downfall. He'd known for some time now that Hinata had been hiding her true strength. She was far stronger than Hanabi could ever possibly aspire to be, and the clan heads were too blind to realize that Hinata had been deceiving them all along.
A ninja was supposed to be well versed in the art of deception and yet those old fools had never figured out that Hinata ascribed to that far better than they could ever hope to. Hanabi was just a wannabe that tried entirely too hard at everything she did to prove that she was better than her older sister. Neji actually felt sorry for Hinata, having to put up with all that shit because she was the heir. Maybe he should talk to Serena and see if she could get Hinata away too. Let Hanabi be the heir to the family. If the Hyuuga clan didn't change its ways soon it would die out just like the Uchiha clan did. The Uchiha's got too power hungry and had to be slain by one of their own.
Hopefully Naruto would be adopted into the Tsukino Clan because that CRA which stood for Clan Restoration Act was a piece of crap. Naruto would not want to have more than one wife. There were currently three men adopted into the clan, plus Hotaru and Serena, the Tsukino Clan needed to get larger, faster. Maybe they could adopt some of the orphans, he'd mention that to Serena as well, and tell her about the CRA. There were plenty of orphans in Konoha and Suna. Serena seemed like she had a big heart and would take good care of them.
He drops down in front of the Dragon Weapon's shop, " Oh, Neji, what are you doing here. " Tenten asks, she was a part of his three man squad.
" I'm doing a favor for the Tsukino Clan Head, she has a job for your father, she designed some twin katanas and would like him to make them, what materials he can't find she can get. " Neji replies.
" All right, I'll take you to my father and you can settle things with him. Why didn't she come herself? "
" Hormonal male idiots is the summarized answer, plus she has company. He's just passing through though. " Neji answers his teammate.
" I see, it is so nice of you to do that for her, Neji. " Tenten says.
Neji completes that task and heads for the Hyuuga compound, thinking about the offer that was made for him to become Sailor Mercury, though honestly Shikamaru would make a better choice. Maybe he'd introduce Shikamaru to Serena and see what she thought of him.
